NAME

strchr, strrchr, strchrnullocate character in string

LIBRARY

Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

#include < string.h>

char *
strchr( const char *s, int c);

char *
strrchr( const char *s, int c);

char *
strchrnul( const char *s, int c);

DESCRIPTION

The strchr() function locates the first occurrence of c (converted to a char) in the string pointed to by s. The terminating null character is considered part of the string; therefore if c is ‘ \0’, the functions locate the terminating ‘ \0’.

The strrchr() function is identical to strchr() except it locates the last occurrence of c.

The strchrnul() function is identical to strchr() except that if c is not found in s a pointer to the terminating ‘ \0’ is returned.

RETURN VALUES

The functions strchr() and strrchr() return a pointer to the located character, or NULL if the character does not appear in the string.

strchrnul() returns a pointer to the terminating ‘ \0’ if the character does not appear in the string.

STANDARDS

The functions strchr() and strrchr() conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (“ISO C90”). The strchrnul() is a GNU extension .

History

The strchrnul() function first appeared in glibc 2.1.1 and was added in FreeBSD 10.0.
